Internet Explorer provides support for all of the latest HTML authoring features, including some features that are unique to Internet Explorer, such as borderless frames, floating frames, and HTML style sheets. Internet Explorer also provides support for ActiveX controls, which enable you to add custom capabilities, such as sound, animations, and 3-D graphics. For even more exciting Web pages, you can now use Visual Basic Scripting Edition and JScript to create sophisticated pages with information that is active rather than static.
For Web site administrators
SSL 2.0, SSL 3.0, and PCT security provide ultra-secure transactions over the Internet. For example, this new feature of Internet Explorer enables you to make secure credit-card purchases from a catalog on a Web page.
